Dejota began practicing Chinese Medicine in 2011, earning his Masters and Doctorate of Traditional Chinese Medicine in 2010 (MTCM) and 2020 (DTCM) from Five Branches University in San Jose, CA. He also received his Bachelors and Masters degrees from Northeastern University in Boston, MA.

Over the years, Dejota has developed a well-rounded experience in treating everyone from infants to elders for a multitude of conditions. He spent a great deal of time working with indigenous communities in California, New Mexico, and Oklahoma, often partnering with western doctors, mental health professionals, and traditional spiritual and community leaders to address pain, injuries, diabetes prevention, mental health issues, and intergenerational trauma. In addition to his private practice, he also spent over five years seeing patients at a retirement home as part of a multidisciplinary team to treat depression, anxiety, gastrointestinal, neurological, cardiological, and water metabolism issues.

He likes to meet the patient where they are at and uses his tools of acupuncture, herbal medicine, moxibustion, cupping, guasha, tuina, and lifestyle advice to help find balance so the body can heal itself. He also teaches qigong, taiji, bagua, meditation and lectures on Chinese medicine, healthy living, and stress reduction.
